Blue Dragon goes Platinum in Japan, joins budget titles for November
Though the release of Blue Dragon in North America was only last week, over at Japan, Mistwalker‘s title finally hit Platinum. This success has pushed the RPG title up among the ranks of other 360 big guns and into budget lineup territory. That means Blue Dragon will be brushing shoulders with the likes of Lost Planet, Gears of War, and Project Sylpheed – all of which will be re-released on shelves but at a cheaper price (Blue Dragon will retail for JPÂ¥ 2,800, which is around US$ 25).
The updated list of budget titles to be released on November 1 in Japan include the following:
- Lost Planet: Capcom, JPÂ¥ 3,800
- Project Sylpheed: Square Enix, JPÂ¥ 2,800
- Chikyuu Boueigun 3: D3 Publisher, JPÂ¥ 2,800
- Oneechanbara Vortex: D3 Publisher, JPÂ¥ 2,800
- Dead or Alive 4: Tecmo, JPÂ¥ 2,800
- Dead or Alive Xtreme 2: Tecmo, JPÂ¥ 2,800
- Blue Dragon: Microsoft, JPÂ¥ 2,800
- Gears of War: Microsoft, JPÂ¥ 2,800
As a bonus, Microsoft will be releasing a special Dead Rising – Gears of War Platinum Double Pack bundle that will sell for JPÂ¥ 5,240.
